Blogger discovers new trick

xxxxxxxxxxxMaybe you've already figured this one out, but I never did till just now. I discovered if you double-click on a picture in this blog, you get a nice, enlarged version of it. I found I could drag it into e-mail, or right-click on it for other options, including saving it on my computer (which I don't need to do, since it's already there). Gee, you can even set it as background for your desktop. Wouldn't you love to see STRS artwork every time you turn on your computer? : ) KBB

About Me

A graduate of the Oberlin Conservatory of Music and the Baylor University School of Music, I am a professional symphony musician by background. I am also a retired elementary classroom teacher (nonmusic), having taught in the Alliance (OH) City Schools 2-1/2 years and the Columbus Public Schools 30 years. My first job was as harp instructor at The University of Texas; currently I am a Lecturer in Harp at The University of Mount Union. As a retired educator and a life member of a number of professional organizations, including the Ohio Retired Teachers Association and the Ohio Education Association-Retired, I also worked through CORE (Concerned Ohio Retired Educators, which officially disbanded 9/20/12) to help bring about badly needed reform in our teachers retirement system, STRS Ohio.
